Melissenblätter H&s (Melissa Leaf)

Melissa leaf provides essential oils such as citronellal and citronellol together with flavonoids that may enhance GABA activity in the central nervous system and exert antispasmodic effects on smooth muscle. These actions are thought to produce calming, sleep‑supporting, and digestive‑relief effects.

The appropriate dose of Melissenblätter H&s is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s condition, age, and response. Patients should follow the specific instructions provided by their clinician or pharmacist.

Safety data for Melissa leaf in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It is generally advised to avoid use during pregnancy and to discontinue breastfeeding if any infant reaction occurs, unless a qualified health professional explicitly recommends otherwise.

To order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Compared with alternatives such as valerian root or chamomile, Melissa leaf is noted for a milder sedative profile and additional antispasmodic activity. While all are used for relaxation, individual response varies, and the choice often depends on specific symptom patterns and tolerability.

Store the product at temperatures below 25 °C in its original packaging, protecting it from moisture, direct sunlight and excessive heat. Ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain product stability throughout its shelf life.

Melissenblätter H&s is intended for oral use. It may be supplied as a dried leaf preparation, tea, or encapsulated form, and should be taken according to the prescriber’s directions, typically with water and preferably after a meal to reduce gastrointestinal irritation.

Serious risks, though rare, include allergic reactions such as rash, itching or swelling, potential liver enzyme elevation indicating hepatic stress, and severe dizziness or vertigo. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if any of these symptoms develop.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to Melissa leaf, children without medical supervision, pregnant or breastfeeding women (unless advised by a clinician), and patients with significant liver disease or uncontrolled epilepsy should avoid using this product.
